ECV and results of correlation analysis with pressure gradient and EL' for n=23 in HCM patients who underwent both 4D flow MRI and pre- and post-contrast T1-mapping.

Mean ECV (%) LVOT pressure gradient LVOT energy loss
R2 P R2 P
entire LV1 28 ± 4 0.44 <0.001 0.46 <0.001
Septum2 29 ± 4 0.38 <0.01 0.42 <0.001
Free Wall3 26 ± 4 0.34 <0.01 0.31 <0.01

P-value 0.14*
1

n=23, in 2 patients ECV was averaged over base and mid due to insufficient image quality in the apex

2

n=23, for 5 subjects ECV was averaged over base and mid due to insufficient image quality in the apex

3

n=22, ECV calculation was not feasible for 1 patient due to insufficient image quality, for 5 subjects ECV was averaged over base and mid due to insufficient image quality in the apex

Difference between ECV values for entire LV, Septum and Free Wall, Kruskal-Wallis test, significant when P<0.05
